Huskies Grady Gross Took a Road Trip Tha

Grady Gro s sent his first University of Washington kickoff sailing high end over end to the UCLA 3 yard line, where the Bruins' Kazmeir Allen gathered it in and started up the right sideline.The speedy kick returner, who'd gone the distance before, veered to the left Miye Oni Jersey before spotting an open lane and sharply cutting back right.Allen shifted into overdrive as he zipped past Husky defenders and saw nothing Bojan Bogdanovic Jersey between him and the goal line.However, once he cro sed the 34, Allen was tripped off his feet by a soccer-style sliding Gro s, who stuck out a foot and brought down the guy with the football.Two flags were thrown immediately and signaled an obvious infraction on the otherwise industrious true freshman and walk-on player from Scottsdale, Arizona, who won the UW kickoff job.Standing on the sideline, Husky coach Kalen DeBoer wasn't particularly thrilled by what he just saw, thinking, "I at first was, 'Really?
